Who is the Brewers' all-time first baseman?
Greg Brock (1987-91)
Cecil Cooper (1977-87)
John Jaha (1992-98)
George Scott (1972-76)
Richie Sexson (2000-03)

I'm going with Cecil Cooper, who nearly played twice as many games at first base for the Brewers than anyone else ever did.

To me there are really only two choices, Scott and Cooper, not only the two best 1bmen in Brewer history, but among the best of their era.
Coop gets the nod for longevity. He was a good hitter and almost as good a fielder as Scott, who was one of the best fielders of all time at first.

Growing up with Cooper, I gotta pick him. I remember asking my dad why they booed every time he came up to bat, turns out they were saying COOOOOOOOOOOP.

It's got to be Coop, as much as I liked Sexson when he played for the team he didn't play for as long as I'd have liked.
